Gay Penguins

Here’s an article from Queerty about these gay penguins in a zoo in China, who, because they couldn’t lay eggs of their own stole eggs from other penguin nests and replaced them with rocks. Pretty clever, huh? But they were segregated because the zookeepers didn’t like it, until the visitors at the zoo got angry, and the zookeepers gave them two eggs of their own.

Gay penguins seem to be all the rage these days, especially with the controversy over “And Tango Makes Three” – the beautiful children’s book about two gay penguins in the Central Park Zoo.

Apparently, some parents think gay penguins are extremely offensive, because this was the most banned book of 2007 and 2008. God forbid, children read about two male penguins living together – don’t want to teach our children tolerance or anything.

Seems like penguins are more controversial these days than gay marriage!
